I got to work fine
Didn't even do any skids!

The snow is melting a bit now although it's still falling, more tonight apparently.

Lots of problems with the power, keep flicking to the emergency genny and back. All overhead lines out here though.

I'd always heard that the reason for Britain grinding to a halt in this sort of weather is that we're a temperate country, so have to be set up for warm as well as cold, unlike Sweden, Russia etc where they're mostly cold, so can adapt their infrastructure to deal with it. Not sure how much I believe that reason though...
